    Fairly simple question. Is there a difference between the two keyboards other than the $50 price premium and the wrist rest on the g513?

     

    Thanks,

    Owen

    It looks like that's all the difference there is. Which I don't get.

    I have a blog! And a list of guides I've posted

    Are you referring to the new announcement of the GX Blue switches? Also, can't you just buy those keycaps seperately. And for gaming and typing on the same keyboard, would you suggest linear of tactile?

     

    Thanks

    Oops! My bad, yes. I was referring to that. In my opinion, linear keycaps are harder to get used to, so I would go with tactile.

    No problem! I've never had a mecha keyboard, so that seems like a good place to start.

    Trust me. When you switch to mechanical, you'll never want to go back. After I switched to a mechanical keyboard, all other keyboards feel squishy and gross.

    Well, it's the G512 that I believe only comes with GX Blues or standard Romer-G switches... And the G513 only comes with standard Romer-G switches and their new Linear Romer-G switches.
